A Compact Disc (20,000x zoom)

Human Eye lashes

a Flea

Chalk Ball

This is the dust you would get after drawing with chalk. Not what you were expecting right? Chalk is derived from lime mud that has accumulated in optimum conditions on the floor of the sea. Lime mud forms from the skeletons of microscopic plankton. Next time you see a chalk outline, just remember to make that chalk outline countless plankton corpses were used O.o

That sand is actually a bunch of foraminifera. (Very small critter skeletons/shells) it's sand, but special sand.

Horse urine looks like how ice cream tasted when I dropped acid.

Science: all of these images are colorless when acquired and then colorized. So horse urine doesn't look like an acid trip irl

So, is the horse-urine one an electron micturgraph?

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Might even be crystallography. I'm not sure. Usually they normalize the image to a visible color or color range (1/2)

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I.e. Smallest value=lowest energy light we can see (red); highest value=highest (blue/violet). Idk enough to say how they acquired the data

bugs and things were taken the same way!

otherwise you wouldn't be able to tell what you're looking at

11 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

yeah you are correct sir the liquids in this image were taken with an electron micrograph and then colored post capture and most of the tiny

What I don't understand is why they used green for the eyelashes. I feel like it's fake because of that. Looks like grass.

Sand looks more interesting than I ever thought.

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Those are foraminifera. They're really small sea critters. Most sand looks like silicate rocks.

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

That's not quite what sand looks like. Those are just the fossils you can sometimes find if you sift through it.

Of all these things the human eyelash is the grossest thing

How does one refine sugar?

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

Give it a top hat & cane, Carl.

11 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

In the traditional refining process, the raw sugar is first mixed with heavy syrup and centrifuged to wash away (1/2)

11 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

Molasses is a byproduct of the refining process if you have ever wondered where Molasses came from

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

the outer coating of the raw sugar crystals, which is less pure than the crystal interior. (2/2)
